Just in Time for Easter

Like clockwork Copts are slaughtered by Jihadists as we approach Easter. Dave Griffey at Daffey Thoughts prays for the victims:

As I’ve discovered, for some Christians in Islamic countries, Palm Sunday is the main celebration day. That’s because of generations of regulations aimed at restricting their primary holy day of Easter. I don’t know if that’s the case with Coptic Christians. But it’s a reminder that as horrible as this is, it’s not unique, nor is it new.

I had the pleasure of speaking to several Syrian immigrants today. Apparently they’ve not been able to tell their side of the story because they told it all to me. Not sure what to do with their accounts, which included request for prayers for churches they attended that are gone, loved ones and friends who died horribly, or simply the ages and ages that their communities have lived under the specter of similar periods of oppression and persecution.

All I can say is that my thoughts and prayers go out to them. In all due respect to Walt Disney, it’s actually a large world after all. And nothing they told me today sounded at all like what I hear in our media or from our pols or designated ‘experts.’ I fear someday we Americans are going to be in for a rude awakening. In the meantime, we can at least pray for and remember those whose celebrations were marred by death, and pray that today, those killed will be with Christ in paradise.

Christians who have the misfortune to live where Islam is dominant usually live lives as a despised minority, lives that can be ended at any time by casual murder by adherents of the religion of peace. Their co-religionists in the West do nothing except tell themselves lies about Islam and rapidly avert their gazes from facts that refute the lies. May the Copt martyrs be enjoying the Beatific Vision and may God forgive the cowardice and pusillanimity of leaders of Christians in the West.

But, but, but… It is a religion of peace! The Pope says so. Nothing to fear. Nothing to see.

Really, sarcasm is inappropriate and the observations that “Muslim dominated” usually means “despised minority” for Christians, is spot on. It is just hard to take the new found adoration for Islam, by our Church, seriously. I am tired of hearing that Yahweh is just Allah by another name. Jehovah is God, Allah is, at best, a fiction.

The ahoristicity of the claim that Islam is peaceful is really offensive. Without the sword, Islam would have been a bizarre footnote to history. 400 years of violence expanded the belief, NOT the rightness of its thinking. One might as well say that the Romans embraced the Visigoths… that would be about as right.

I am sorry for the loss and fearful of the future and I have a hard time taking the claim that Islam is peaceful, seriously.

About the “Is Allah the same as God the Father question”
from the First little letter of St John verse 23
“No one who denies the Son has the Father; everyone who confesses the Son has the Father also.”

Islam is a seventh century heresy that may well have been relegated to the septic tank of history if not for Middle East oil.
Who wants to move to an Islamic country? What can you do there to enjoy yourself? Those people are miserable and unproductive..

Christianity in Europe successfully repelled Islam, only to embrace the lunatics of the Reformation and the DisEnlightenment.

Allah has no son to love and no son to love him. Muslims are not the adopted children of Allah. Only the Blessed Trinity is a family of LOVE.

Thank you, Anzlyne. Islam is an evil, pagan cult. The Pope and much of the hierarchy are culpable for the lies they tell about it. Nothing will change until we speak the truth. The future does not belong to those fail to tell the truth about Islam.
